The other leg is in shadow. You can see it to the left of the forward leg. The foot is directly behind the foot you can see. It would be more obvious if it was colored.

I love the familiars and the umberhulk...man... thing. Also the leprechaun on an owl is just cool. I may have to place an order soon... but that's always a dangerous slope with Reaper as there always seems to be just one more model I would like to buy while I am paying for shipping.
Automatically Appended Next Post: Also, I wonder if GW is going to change the name of their painting crew now that they don't really have metal models anymore. Perhaps call them the "Rather Light Resin" team?

Yeah cause I certainly haven't been playing D&D since 1984.
Glances at book shelf.
D'OH!

I heard about that, some kind of deep diving vessel by the look of the title.
Kind of ripe for a few sequels.
Cool mini bro!
Yeah what was the submarine called, the Bowflex or something?

So we're still at one of two options:
1) You've played DnD since 1984 and don't know what an Umber Hulk is.
2) You were trying to be funny and failed miserably.
You could have at least put some effort into it and said something about how they locked The Incredible Hulk and Arthas in a room together with a barrel of Mutagen from TMNT and that's what came stumbling out in the morning.

Oh oh, what about option 3? You don't have a sense of humor. Geeze. Just drop it already. We get that you didn't get the joke.

FYP. If Kyoto-sama's humor isn't to your liking, there's still no reason to insult the guy.

It's not funny until a weasel dies laughing.

With the bile that gets launched across this forum you thought that was an insult? Really?
Also, you may not be aware of it, but "post fixing" isn't nearly as cool as you think it is.

It isn't?!
My gods, sir, you've shown me the light!
Yeah, because I'm so worried about being cool on a wargaming forum.

Am I the only one who saw this and thought "Mephiston counts-as"?!
No, but I did see it and immediately think "Lara Kraft"
"Kraft"
Because it's a mouse.

Fixed the post a bit and chose my option.

The Umber Hulk joke is like all those times my wife sees any of
my miniatures and says, "Trolls!" or "Goblins!"
He's mocking by feigning ignorance. Actually, in my wife's case,
she's mocking by displaying her ignorance about my miniatures
